Newton Faulkner by Pip for BMG
Book now

Boasting a double platinum-selling debut album in 2007’s Hand Built by Robots, Newton Faulkner has gone on to become a firm festival favourite – having performed at the likes of Glastonbury, Isle of Wight, Latitude and Cambridge Folk Festival over the past decade.

Originally from Reigate in Surrey, Faulkner toured early in his career with James Morrison, Paolo Nutini and John Mayer – and was special guest of Donovan at the Royal Albert Hall in 2011. Known for his distinctively percussive guitar playing, he recovered from an accident that shattered his right wrist to resume his career with second album, 2009’s Rebuilt by Humans.

Faulkner will arrive at Cannon Hall Farm with a brand new, as-yet unnamed sixth studio record.
